‘Speed dating’

3 minutes to discuss/ come up with an idea to improve your classroom practice or share something good under the theme headings below:

1) Innovation: - Students to do a Science experiment, not just watch demonstration- Creative writing – students to use own experiences- Group work – carousel – every student moves to a different group during the lesson and

takes part in different activity on that table- Maths – writing out the actual steps to problems; students make notes in text book style

2) Student learning skills:- Students doing starters- Student becomes teacher (plenary)- Students to use colour cards (red, orange, green) to show whether they have

understood key words/concepts etc, then students explain words in pairs to those who have red cards

- Student teaches others in small groups/individuals- Students acting parts of scenes having researched meanings of key words (teacher

prepares questions beforehand to help students work out the meanings) (English)

3) Use of technology:- List of websites and questions – students use the websites to answer the questions- Use of visualisers to annotate / show students’ work- Handheld ‘blueberries’ (Maths) – students can use to respond to quizzes – can be

numerical answers, multiple choice, free text (will be trialled in summer term)

4) CPD:- Time management- Effective marking- A level subject knowledge- Skills/knowledge – focus on the differences between these between the different key

stages
